Things to know
Common questions about this course.
Is this course HSE compliant?
Yes. Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW) meets the Health and Safety Executive's requirements for low-risk workplaces and is delivered as a Qualsafe Awards regulated qualification.
What is the difference between EFAW and First Aid at Work (FAW)?
EFAW is a 1 day course suitable for low-risk workplaces such as offices, shops, and small businesses. FAW is a 3 day course required for higher-risk workplaces and covers a wider range of injuries and medical conditions. Your workplace risk assessment should determine which is right for you.
How long is the certificate valid?
The Qualsafe certificate is valid for 3 years. We recommend an annual refresher to maintain skills and confidence.
Do I need any previous first aid experience?
No previous experience is required. The course is taught from scratch in a supportive environment with plenty of hands-on practice.
Can you deliver this at our workplace?
Yes, we deliver on-site EFAW training across Cheshire and the North West. We bring all equipment and can train groups of up to 12. Contact us on 07958 915146 to arrange.
